Only gotten part way through the first link Mazen, but great stuff.

The second link lists blood in stool for Crohns as "rare"....am I not reading it right?

Hi Pen. Well now I'm fine tapering down the Pred and hoping to stay OK when I stop it in a couple of weeks, as I'm getting married in a month. Luckily my fiance is understanding about my disease and she always follows me about what I eat and how I'm feeling and if I'm taking my meds properly...

I always try to find any new info about Crohn's but things seem to be very confusing.... I'm currently tinkering with the idea of starting SCD, as my prospects for the future seem to be either Remicade or surgery (which I both hate) but I'm waiting till I get married and settle down and see how i can handle it with my wife to be... wish me luck
